Eric,

 

in order to clear up all this MESS you just made,

just two things have to be clarified:

 

ERIC, what is your idea of enlightenment?

 

and the second is a question for sandeep:

SANDEEP, are you enlightened?

 

(no disrespect, forgive me for asking again,

but our eric here needs to hear it.

btw, i appreciate the honesty of your last reply to me)

(i hope it was honest)
